If direct-to-cloud is not possible, several camera settings must be configured, including date/time, DNS, firmware update, enabling WiseStream and motion detection. 3. The steps to add the camera to the cloud service are then outlined, including starting the add camera wizard, entering the camera's serial number and MAC address, and checking if live view and recording are working once complete.

rmware mentioned can be obtained by contacting support and will need to be

guarantees that a number of important settings are con gured, allowing a smooth
installation.
